Artist's Comments

:bulletred: Nothin' But Sky and Chevy's :bulletred:

I love 58 Chevy's...one of my favorite cars. An old shot that I was able to salvage because of my editing skills improving. Needless to say I am happy I was able to! Now generally as a rule of thumb, I would KO the powerlines, but this time I left them in intentionally. Why? Well I started to KO them then went back, after noticing that without them, the telephone pole is just kinda strange and they add a sense of perspective in this shot.

Processed with Photoshop, LucisArts, Virtual Photographer, about 7 layers, and custom color retro actions using curves.

Thoughts welcomed, print to come!

:wow: Amazing editing skills I must say. Without it, this would've been just another simple shot of a couple of Chevy's. Now this is just marvelous. Love the tones! :D

I think you were definitely right to leave the power lines in. I don't know how to describe it, but they really tie the whole thing together for me, and are an important element... I dunno.. something about their placement is just so perfect, along with the water tower or whatever it is, etc. :-) Kinda contradicts your title though hehe :-) ... but I guess that "Nothin' But Sky and Chevys and some Power Lines and some Tower Thingies" doesn't make much of a catchy title... :D
